20 = average value for the last 20 seconds
25 = average value for the last 25 seconds
30 = average value for the last 30 seconds
The analog vario display is not attenuated.
Vario sound: Sound can either be switched off entirely or 2 volume levels can be set by repeatedly pressing the volume key (10). The volume level
currently set will sound when the key is pressed. When the unit is switched on, the volume is automati cally set at level 1.
Ascent tone: A sound interval with a rising tone frequency dependent on ascent fre quency and a timbre dependent on scale (ASI: Acoustic Scale
Indication) . The response point is set to optimum response time (factory setting) and can be altered (please consult a specialist).
Descent tone/Descent alarm: A continuous falling tone frequency dependent on des cent with a timbre dependent on scale (ASI: Acoustic Scale
Indication). Can be switched on or off by pressing the descent tone key (9). On switching on the descent tone/alarm and pressing the key, a segment will
appear in the descent sector of the analog vario display to indicate the current response point. When the descent tone/alarrn is switched off, pressing the
key will not produce a display.
The descent tone/alarm will only sound when the vario acoustic facility is switched on.
When the descent tone key (9) is pressed for approx. 4 seconds, the unit moves into the adjustment mode for descent tone/descent alarm (see setting
mode). The response point can be adjusted within the entire range of the scale.
Wind speed display: The vane wheel sensor is connected to the socket (6) on the lefthand side of the unit. The readout appears in the lower display
sector SPEED.
Stall alarm: Pressing the SPEED key (11) continuously for approx. 4 seconds will cause the instrument to change into stall alarm adjustment mode (see
Setting mode). Acknowledge by pressing the SPEED key.
Stopwatch: The stopwatch can be activated by pressing the START/STOP/RESET key. Intermediate values can be timed by pressing this key briefl y.
They will be displayed in the upper display sector CHRONO. Further intermediate values can be measured by repeatedly pressing the START/STOP/
RESET key.
A fl ashing or immobile arrow in the CHRONO display sector indicates that the stop watch has been activated. The stopwatch is deactivated by pressing the
START/STOP/ RESET key continuously for approx. 4 seconds. The intermediate value mustbe timed before doing this.
Real time clock, date: Real time is shown in the lower display sector TIME.
Changeover into TIME setting mode is done by continuously pressing the TIME key (11). Enter the hour(s) and minute(s), acknowledge by pressing the
TIME key. Enter the day and the month and acknowledge. Enter the year and acknowledge.
ATTENTION: The real time clock and the date can no longer be altered when the baro graph recording has been activated with the REC switch (13). These
two functions can only be reset when the rnemory has been cleared (q.v. BAROGRAPH: Clearing).
Peak value memory: Pressing the MEMO key (11) will display the fl ight data and peak values of the current fl ight (0) which are continuously updated
during the fl ight. Maximum absolute altitude (ALTI 1). Maximum relative altitude (ALTI 2). Maximum ascent. Flight time. Date.
Pressing the DOWN (8) or UP (7) key will invoke the peak values of the last 20 fl ights (1, 2, 3, etc.), with fl ight 20 being the least recent fl ight.
Flight data is saved automatically when the unit is switched off (condition: the unit must have been switched on for 3 minutes and there must have been
a clear difference in altitude).
Memories 0 to 20 are updated and the data of the least recent fl ight is deleted.
Barograph
Flight recording is started by switching on the REC switch (13) when starting, and stopped by switching off after landing. If this manual switch-off is
forgotten, record ing will continue until the unit is fi nally switched off. The barograph will save the current altitude every 15 seconds. The entire memory
period is approximately 32 hours.
Clearing: Set the REC switch (13) to OFF. Select the MEMO function by pressing the changeover key (11). This is indicated by an arrow. A zero will appear
in the display sector for the digital vario display (3). By pressing the reset key UP (7) and the DOWN (8) key simultaneously for approx. 4 seconds, the
entire memory is cleared.
Printer: Your FLYTEC 3030 can be connected directly to a printer that satisfi es the following specifi cations:
Interface: RS232C
9600 bps
8 data bits
No parity
Emulation: EPSON FX-8O/IBM Proprinter.
Bit-map mode command for graphic printout: ESC+L (Double density).
Print out: Connect the printer cable to the printer (serial printer port). Connect the other end of the printer cable to the printer connection socket (14). First
switch on the printer and then your FLYTEC 3030.
Select the MEMO function by pressing the changeover key (11). This is indicated by an arrow.
A zero will appear in the display sector for the digital vario display (3). By pressing the changeover key (11) for approx. 4 seconds, all recordings saved
will be printed out in the form of a list of contents. Barograph recordings are marked on the list with an asterisk and can be printed out subsequently. The
fl ight number is given to the left of the list with fl ight 1 being the most recent fl ight recorded.
The fl ights which have been saved (1, 2, 3, etc). can be selected by pressing the DOWN (8) or UP (7) key. Each fl ight number is shown in the display sector
for the digital vario display (3). By pressing the changeover key (11) for approx. 4 seconds, the fl ight selected can be printed out (q.v. sample printout).
Changeover to rechergeable battery operation: Order the FLYTEC AKKU SET from your local dealer (2 rechargeable batteries and 1 charging unit).
Plug the charg ing unit into the charging socket (6) and recharge the batteries for approx. 8 hours. Both batteries will be automatically recharged during
this period.
IMPORTANT: after a lengthy period of non-use the batteries will show an excessive operating voltage. This will fall to its actual value one minute after
switching on the instru ment. For this reason, the actual operating voltage should be checked again after approximately one minute. The average operating
time per battery is approx. 12 hours (approx. 50 hours for alkaline batteries).
N.B.: Only use rechargeable batteries! The charging unit must never be connected when non-rechargeable batteries are being used.
Water damage: Open the unit immediately. If salt water has entered the unit, rinse it thoroughly (the printed circuit board, in particular) with hand-hot fresh
water. Allow the unit to dry as well as possible, preferably in the sun. If this is not possible, the unit must be placed on a piece of wood in an oven. Allow
the unit to dry off for one or two hours as required, at a temperature of approx. 50ºC. Leave the oven door open slightly to allow any moisture to escape!
N.B.: Never put the unit in a microwave oven!
